The information in this book didn‘t really surprise me, but it was affirming and inspiring. I enjoyed learning about the science and research and feel newly energized to prioritize the arts and aesthetics in my family‘s life. ⬇️

5 ⭐️ reading content, 4 ⭐️ reading experience. Very heavy research-based work of non-fiction but mindblowing. PSA to incorporate 20 minutes of art into your day, every day! It‘s our way through trauma, our map to the subconscious, our portal to the divine. Obviously, I didn‘t need much convincing, but I‘m inspired to have the reminder that art is an essential, valuable crux of our humanity and spiritual well-being.
Hey TeamCryptKeepers here is a #ScarathlonSprint for tonight with your host @Emilymdxn @TheBookHippie @JenReadsAlot @BarkingMadRead @kezzlou85 @Marmie7 @Rissa1 @aperfectmjk @Bookishgal71 @Nazgul93 @BookingitwithSandra @kay.the.bibliophile
(2008) Sometimes a book sits so long on your TBR that by the time you get around to it, its moment has passed. I feel like that's what happened with this book, which argues that little attention has been paid to the ways that human evolution has made us vulnerable to certain flaws in reasoning. But recently there has been no shortage of books doing just that, and sometimes doing it better. Maybe if I'd read it in 2008...
While this book held no opinions I didn‘t already have, it substantiated them all with scientific studies. We all need regular exposure to all of the arts, it‘s even better for us to practice/create artistically. It‘s also important to switch them up, try something new and it‘s especially important when you are feeling extreme emotions.
My latest audio and so far I‘m feeling extremely satisfied with my life choices ( high jacking teacher lesson plans to teach full days of art, taking my kids to art galleries/museums/installations in every city we visit )
"Relieving our stress is as important as eating food, drinking water, and sleeping. And, in these moments, the arts and aesthetics make a big difference if you know how to use them. Think of the arts as an activity that changes your biology, emotional state, and enhances your mental well-being."
Apparently I am NOT reading this book tonight 😂
